1 2013 BORGESS HEALTH SYSTEM Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA) Report DESCRIPTION OF COMMUNITY: Assessment of Kalamazoo County and Borgess Health s Primary Service Area The City of Kalamazoo is located within county and represents approximately 30% of the total population. The average annual income of a Kalamazoo county resident is $46,019 annually with 18.6% of the population falling below the poverty level. The current unemployment rate is 8.8% Kalamazoo County Vital Statistics Southwest Michigan Population Demographics and Trends Southwest Michigan is comprised of a nine-county region that borders Indiana. Kalamazoo County is at the heart of southwest Michigan and is the most densely populated of the nine counties. Together, the neighboring cities of Kalamazoo and Portage within the county represent the largest metropolitan area in the region. For the purpose of the Community Health Needs Assessment, we will define our focus on Kalamazoo County, which includes the cities Kalamazoo and Portage. In 2013 County Health Rankings were released on March 21, 2013 by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the University of Wisconsin Population Health Institute. Kalamazoo County places in the middle of the 82 Michigan counties at the 46 th rank. According to estimates by the U.S. Census, the City of Kalamazoo's population increased 0.64 percent from 74,262 to 74,743 between 2010 and During the same timeframe, the population of the City of Portage increased 0.71 percent from 46,292 to 46,624. The following vital statistics are provided as an overview. 1

3 estimates projected that 19.2% of the Kalamazoo County population or 46,091 people lived below the poverty level. The proportions of people living below the poverty level in Michigan (15.7%) as well as the proportion in the United States (14.4%) were lower than the proportion in Kalamazoo County. Within Kalamazoo County, the proportion of the population living below the poverty level varied by city and township. In , the City of Kalamazoo had the highest poverty rate with 36.0% of residents living below the poverty level. Poverty estimates for all cities and townships in Kalamazoo County are available from the American Community Survey as an average rate between 2006 and The highest rate was in the City of Kalamazoo; lowest rates were in Texas Township, Cooper Township, Climax Township, Ross Township, and Prairie Ronde Township. Source: Kalamazoo County Health & Community Service, August 2012 WHO WAS INVOLVED IN THE ASSESSMENT: Community Benefit Advisory Committee In 2012, Borgess Health re-established the Community Benefit Advisory Committee. This committee represents sixteen (16) community agency leaders throughout Kalamazoo County and is intended to represent a wide range of expertise and services that impact our community s health status. Each committee member also holds numerous board and community committee positions in Kalamazoo and is adequately positioned to represent the community needs. The Community Benefit Advisory Committee represented a large cross section of community agencies. The committee members expertise involves public health, not-for-profit agencies, school/educational programs, elderly support services, family health centers, chronic disease specialty clinics, Borgess Health representatives involved in community work, and a local government official. All agencies and their representatives on the committee are involved with providing services to the medically underserved, low income and minority populations.

5 STATEMENT OF PURPOSE: In order to assist the Community Benefit Advisory Committee in defining its work and scope, the committee felt it was necessary to build and establish guiding principles and defining characteristics. This approach would set the stage for meaningful dialogue, discussions and establishment of work processes. The following represents the Community Benefit Advisory Committee adopted Vision, Mission and Statement of Purpose. Vision: We will advance the healthcare of our community. Mission: Our Community Benefit Advisory Committee is committed to improve our community health status, address quality of life concerns, and reduce health disparities, by improving access to health services. Priority Selection Criteria: 1. IMPACT on community health improvement 2. SCOPE of community affected 3. THREAT to long term quality of life 4. RESOURCES/CAPACITY to address identified issues 5. CONSEQUENCES of inaction ASSESSMENT PROCESS: Each agency/organization provided data they had collected over the past calendar or fiscal year. The data was brought to monthly committee meetings and each agency representative reviewed their data with the committee members. Formal presentations educated all members on the significance of the work, structure and service area, as well as populations served and key issues and concerns that impacted the ability to care for their particular area of focus. This process provided a significant amount of data collection that covered multiple categories which related to health needs of our community. The data of each agency/organization provided necessary insight and became the baseline assessment for our county.

Community Agency/Organization Presentations 2. Review of Community/Agency/Organization data 3. Community Benefit Advisory Committee discussions and clarification of data 4. Community members identify health needs that need improvement/or addressing 5. Rank voting of identified health needs. Utilized nominal group planning methodology. 6. Discussion/strategy development on top three health needs 7. Development of indicators to assess/monitor top three health needs. Identification of Health Needs: The following list identifies health factors that were determined to impact the health of Kalamazoo County residents (Assessment Priorities) and the final three major areas of focus (Health Needs Identified) through our Community Health Needs Assessment process. Chronic Disease Management: 1. Cardiac-related 2. Diabetes 3. Cancer 4. Stroke Homelessness Obesity Access to Care Early Childhood Services: 1. Infant Mortality 2. Healthy Food/Nutrition 3. Childhood Diabetes Health Education Advancement 6

7 Three Primary Target Areas of Focus Identified: 1. Diabetes 2. Obesity 3. Access to Care The other remaining 8 areas of health need will not be addressed specifically by Borgess in this cycle. Borgess has invested its resources in both cardiac related and stroke management, and is currently refining its strategy related to cancer care. At this time Borgess will not address the larger societal issue of homelessness as our limited resources will be utilized to enhance our clinical services. Borgess continues to collaborate with Bronson Hospital on infant mortality. This area was not chosen as Bronson is our designated Level 3 Perinatal Center. Borgess does not have an inpatient pediatric service and the advisory committee felt that Bronson would address the areas of childhood health nutrition and diabetes within their designated status of being a children s service hospital. BORGESS HEALTH COMMITMENT: Borgess Health is committed to providing quality care and living up to Ascension Health s goal to provide healthcare that leaves no one behind. We, as a health ministry, support 100% access and 100% coverage and recognize that in order to achieve this goal that the healthcare delivery system needs to be redesigned in order to improve health outcomes. However, hospital systems cannot extend their services indefinitely and need to look at collaborative models, services and interventions. Borgess Health has invested resources in the three targeted focus areas. These focus areas need not exist apart from our current hospital strategy and activities. We intend for continued growth and support for these existing patient initiatives and recognize their impact on community based prevention and treatment activities. Working collaboratively with our Community Benefit Advisory Committee, Borgess Health intends to make use of its assets, capabilities and capacities and to continue to promote and develop these resources that will positively impact our three focus areas and their impact on our community s population health. SUPPORTING DATA AND STATISTICS FOR AREAS OF FOCUS: The following data and graphic depictions demonstrate problem areas and challenges that note contributing factors and underlying causes in our three primary areas of focus. Data and graphs from a state and county perspective were supplied by Kalamazoo County Health and Community Services and from the State Community Health Assessment Meeting Summary and Findings from Region 5 dated October All three areas impact the general population health concerns. 7

8 Data indicators, while focused on a particular area, may also reflect very complex issues that extend beyond our three areas of focus. Borgess data for the purpose of this report will reflect our current population served and focus on hospital centric statistics. Focus Area, Diabetes: Diabetes Incidence in Kalamazoo County Diabetes is the sixth leading cause of death in Kalamazoo County, Michigan, and in the United States. 8, 9 In Kalamazoo County in 2009, there were 87 deaths for which the underlying cause of death was diabetes mellitus (a rate of 35.0 deaths per 100,000 population). This represented 4.4% of all deaths in There were a total of 253 deaths that were diabetes-related (including the 87 deaths for which the main cause was diabetes mellitus), which represented 12.7% of all deaths in Kalamazoo County in The following charts demonstrate that diabetes prevalence continues to be an issue in Kalamazoo County. Socio-economic factors play a role as well as race. Mortality rates related to diabetes are noted to have negatively impacted the Black population at a greater incidence. 8 Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, National Center for Health Statistics, Deaths: Final Data for 2007, accessed at 9 Michigan Department of Community Health, Division for Vital Records and Health Data Development, Resident Death File. For more information about leading causes of death in Kalamazoo County, please refer to Section 3: Life Expectancy and Leading Causes of Death of the Kalamazoo County Health Surveillance Data Book. 10 Michigan Department of Community Health, Division for Vital Records and Health Data Development, Resident Death File; diabetes-related deaths include those for which the main underlying cause of death was determined to be diabetes mellitus, or diabetes mellitus was listed as a related cause of the death, even it was not the main cause. 8

(A BMI of is considered obese, a BMI of but less than 30.0 is considered overweight, and a BMI less than 25.0 is considered to be not overweight or obese.) The prevalence of obesity varied across age groups in Kalamazoo County. The rate of obese or overweight adults was highest among those aged 25 years and over (almost twice as high as the rate among those aged 18 to 24 years). The rate of obesity was highest among the age group. The age group with the greatest proportion of the population that was overweight or obese was year olds (81.0% were overweight or obese). The rate of overweight and obesity was similar across educational and income levels.

Insurance coverage estimates among Kalamazoo County residents indicated that 14.7% of adults between the ages of 18 and 64 years old in the county were uninsured on average during In Michigan during that same period, 16.9% of the adult population was uninsured. In Kalamazoo County 14.7% of the adult population equates to approximately 23,740 people between the ages of with no health insurance. Among children less than 18 years of age, an estimated 4.0% or 2,271 were uninsured in Kalamazoo County on average from A similar rate was observed throughout Michigan at 4.4%.

According to data obtained from the Family Health Center in Kalamazoo, approximately 35,000 people with Medicaid and 35,000 under and under-insured people do not have primary care providers. The Family Health Center has capacity to serve 40,000 patients, with a community need ranging approximately for 70,000 patients. This leaves 30,000 patients without access to any provider. Their assessment sites the following obstacles that patients encounter when trying to secure healthcare: providers are not open to new patients, providers will not accept people without insurance, practices are closed to Medicaid, and referrals to the Family Health Center. The Family Health Center is in the process of developing strategies for partnerships and access. A three year strategic planning retreat will explore these issues in June A community the size of Kalamazoo County should have approximately 103 primary care providers in Family Medicine which includes MDs, Dos and mid-levels. There also should be 57 Internists available to serve the current and projected population of Kalamazoo County.. Source: Family Health Center of Kalamazoo 20

The intention of committee members is to continue to meet and guide the implementation strategies for our three primary target areas of focus. As part of the implementation strategy, Borgess Health has also organized an internal Community Benefit task force that will be involved in the development of metrics, indicators and program support. Information and progress will be shared with the Community Benefit Advisory Committee. The committee will continue to collaborate, 21

22 review and address these priorities. BORGESS HEALTH SYSTEM OVERVIEW: A Legacy of Caring The Borgess legacy began nearly 125 years ago, in Kalamazoo, Michigan, when Bishop Caspar Borgess donated $5,000 from his mother s estate to establish a 20-bed hospital. One year later in 1889, eleven Sisters of St. Joseph arrived from Watertown, New York, to staff the hospital at the request of Monsignor O Brien. By the 1970 s, the original 20-bed hospital had grown into a tertiary care teaching center. Today, Borgess Medical Center, a part of Borgess Health, is a 422-bed regional referral center offering expertise in 30+ medical specialties including cardiovascular, neurosciences, orthopedics, vascular surgery, advanced robotic surgery, minimally invasive procedures, women s health and primary care. The Borgess Health network serves 10 counties in southwest and south-central Michigan with nearly one million residents through its 100-plus sites of care. These geographically dispersed sites of care include 3 owned hospitals, two affiliated hospitals, numerous primary care and specialty physician practices, a nursing home, a cancer center, and air ambulance service. A member of our nation s largest Catholic health system, Ascension Health, Borgess Health is also one of the region s largest employers with a staff of 4,296. Our Mission Borgess Health, as a Catholic health ministry rooted in the values of Ascension Health and its sponsors, is committed to providing holistic, spiritually centered care, which strives to improve the health of individuals in communities we serve with special attention to the poor and vulnerable.

28 BORGESS HEALTH GOALS, OBJECTIVES AND PLANS: DIABETES The following graphs demonstrate the percentages of diabetics seen within Borgess Health. We track demographic data, type of diabetes, age distribution and the uninsured that we serve. We also track and assure that all Borgess Health practices monitor and collect data on their diabetic patients. We are involved in a variety of quality programs to improve the care we render to diabetics in our community.

30 ACTION PLAN FOR DIABETES: Identified as a community health need and as a condition that affects a large cross section of the population in Kalamazoo County, diabetic care continues to be a priority. Borgess Health will continue to advance our Diabetic Center and Diabetes Self-Management Education Services throughout the county, providing both preventative and treatment services. Our Diabetic Center will lead, participate, implement and remain involved in a variety of activities, coalitions, and health education opportunities. We anticipate adding additional providers to meet the increasing demand of diabetic care in our community. Goal: Borgess Health will increase educational opportunities and patient access (visits) that address the needs of diabetic patients. Borgess will continue to provide and strengthen its quality diabetic care, educational support services and specific appointment opportunities that address prevention and treatment modalities. Objective: The Diabetic Self Education Service and Diabetes Center will increase the availability of diabetic care within Kalamazoo County. Implementation Strategies: Develop and deliver educational support services to the community that address and, provide education on insulin and insulin pumps and prevention and treatment courses. Advance Borgess Health quality initiatives for diabetic management in primary care and specialty practices. Expand shared medical appointments to increase access within Borgess Health Diabetic Center for new patient visits, follow up visits, insulin pump instruction and thyroid complications. Explore partnership opportunities with other community providers to address the diabetic population needs. Host an educational symposium for health care providers addressing management of diabetes. Continue to sponsor community events/campaigns that increase and raise awareness concerning the importance of prevention and treatment of diabetes. Explore sponsorship, grants and events that support care for the uninsured diabetic. Expand and recruit additional providers for the Borgess Diabetic Center. 30

31 OBESITY: ACTION PLAN FOR OBESITY: Identified as a community health need and a condition that impacts Kalamazoo county residents as a contributor to the development of chronic disease conditions, Borgess Health will continue to develop, participate and enhance its services to address obesity and obesity related complications. According to a study in the American Journal of Preventative Medicine, scientists predict that nearly half the population in the U.S. will be obese or overweight by This rise in obesity also means a rise in healthcare related costs, potentially a shorter life span and an increase in disease related conditions. We intend to enhance and advance our Borgess Medical Weight Loss Program and Bariatric services in order to address obesity in our county. Obesity affects life styles, is linked to other health factors such as diseases, nutrition, access to healthy foods, physical activity, chronic conditions, mental health and mortality. We recognize that obesity is a multi-generational issue and requires a multi-dimensional and holistic approach in order to impact cultural and societal change. Borgess intends to address obesity by the development of programs, educational opportunities and services that will meet these issues. Goal: Borgess will continue to strengthen their obesity-related services provided to the community, by advancing medical care, increasing access to patients, educational programs, community sponsored events, and participation in community opportunities. Objective: Borgess Medical Weight Loss and Bariatric Services will increase its visibility and availability. Implementation Strategies: Explore partnerships with community agencies on initiatives that support healthy nutrition, physical activity and educational programs.
